  21. I wish you could have, too!  Military history is not my thing, and the
  22. only person I can think of who was a World War II pilot and suffered facial
  23. injuries was the movie actor Jack Palance, and I don't think he was in the
  24. battle for Singapore...but I guess that will have to be my answer.  Okay,
  25. now I hope someone will tell me the REAL answer.

  29.  
  30. Well, in the unlikely event that the answer was right, I'd definitely
  31. choose Geography over Sport.
